    Free or Cheap Part 1 - Clear Out, Brick 08724

    So, going to put a dent in the hoarding situation and want to support club members. Anything listed as free is free, I'm happy to accept a random frag donation of your choice, though not needed. Anything with a price, if you need it, make me a reasonable offer or trade. Not doing this to make...

    Brick PetCo 25% off

    Never had a concern with Brick and have shopped with them for many years. Still have fish I picked up from them 5+ years back swimming about. Decent prices, and they've started getting some nice corals in with some new vendors of late (plus they have them under AI Hydra HDs now). I may just stop...

    Help, maybe? Disease/Fungus?

    EZ, sorry, just saw this. Doesn't really look similar. The lesions seem to be reducing a bit this week. Wondering if it was just injuries from being bullied at this point.

    Quit or continue?

    20g AIO is perfect. I gave up the big tanks a few years back and run smaller AIOs now and love it. Easy maintenance, not too much to be worried about, no crazy equipment costs, etc... I'm running a 30 AIO mixed reef as my main and a 2g water change a week is working just fine. Lights of course...

    Finally starting up the tank I got 2 years ago

    Agreed. I keep my tanks at approx 1". Deep enough for CuC and wrasses, shallow enough to clean manually if/when needed, and no gas buildups.

    Just leave it be. Connect your grey hose to the 1" PVC in the sump bulkhead

    Plumbing Help

    The holes for bulkheads are always 1/4" larger to compensate for the part of the bulkhead that has to go through the hole. The hole in the bulkhead itself takes 1" PVC. If you have 2 down lines from the tank I'd do 2 of these, or you can just do 1 and run only 1 sock... Or, if you have a...

    Amphipods and Copepods from Aquarium Depot

    Agree with Diana. Hit or miss. I had a couple good orders then received an order that was practically empty, maybe 30 live pods, if that. No reply from customer service so I opened a PayPal dispute which they fought and won. So I ended up with pods that cost about $2.50 each.

    Help me ID this please

    If you don't want to buy a big thing of kalk and no-one around you has any to scoot your way, I've had success with Aptasia-X, nuclear waste, and dipping directly into the sun (50/50).

    Finally starting up the tank I got 2 years ago

    Beautiful setup. I've said it before and will again, the aesthetics of these tanks are beautiful, then we add water and livestock and it all goes to ^&*%. Buy plastic fish on lexan rods and put them in tank , you can move them around every morning.

    Jumping in Again

    Lookin good. Watch the cleaner shrimp as well, he may be the culprit and the blenny may be opportunistic eating. I was losing my hammers and couldn't figure it out. Looked in the tank one day and saw this... <a href="">via GIPHY</a>

    Help, maybe? Disease/Fungus?

    I noticed some lesions on tang, 2 on port side, 1 on starboard. The best description I can give is they look like peeled sunburn, when you have that little bit of dead skin around the area that peeled off. They're all in circular form. Added 10 days ago. Extreme harassment from clown, thought I...

    A discussion on ATO choices, advice appreciated

    SoaB! That's what started this thread. I have this system in my main an LOVE it. When I went looking at their ATO section, this wasn't listed as a main ATO, just the 'new improved' version with the float system, etc... Didn't realize they downgraded it and buried it a bit down the page, making...

    The End...

    When you get back on your feet drop a post. I'm sure that when the time comes there'll be plenty of coral, fish, and equipment donations to the cause. For now, relax and recover. :)

    WTB/WTT Nano skimmer

    Specifically looking for a Tunze 9004 DOC but will consider similar. Anyone got one laying around? I can do cash, or trade (have a ton of stuff I'm organizing atm), or can make you a sandwich.
